An examination of the previous times that God has dispersed judgment against sin on Earth teaches us some very important things about the day of God’s final act against sin, as well as His display of intense mercy toward the children of men who are elect for salvation, even from the foundation of the world. Listen in to this message from our Pastor, Landis Fisher on this most thought provoking topic in a message from a Sunday School lesson titled: “God’s Plan For Salvation” taken from the Apostle Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians in the fifth chapter.
